I specifically asked for a large gluten free pizza and paid extra for that!!! Only to fund out it was not gluten free and I have been sick for the last 3 days!!!!
I stopped into the High Street McMenamins after coming back from hiking the McKenzie River and just as always their food hit the spot! They were also able to accommodate my friends gluten allergies with a gluten free bun for her hamburger.
I had the Dark Star Burger which was packed with a good bit of flavor and just enough spice to make you keep wanting to eat more. The burger was juicy and cooked as it should of, with appropriate toppings. I ate the Dark Star Burger with their Cajun tater tots, which were good, but I would have liked to see more effort thrown in from McMenamins as it seems like the tots were just thrown in with some Cajun spice. I'm not knocking or discrediting the flavor of the tots, as they were very good! I was just expecting more. I'm not quite sure what exactly, but I'm not the chief.
All in all, I enjoyed the food, atmosphere, service, and a nice beer with my meal. If I'm in the area again, I will definitely be back!
On the upper end of dining experiences we've had. A little pricey but absolutely worth it. Excellent appetizers and entrees, the halibut special was wonderful, is gluten free without substitution, and I've never had a better creme brulee. Wait staff is knowledgeable about which items are gluten free with or without substitution. They have gluten free pasta on request. All of us ordered something different and no one was disappointed. Coffee is also good, both regular and decaf. We'll look forward to our next chance to dine there.
I needed some vegetarian and gluten free options and the head chef made some amazing recommendations. Thank you very much for this great service, Ross!
